Directions:

In a large saucepan cook onion and green pepper in the 2 Tbls butter till tender. Combine onion mixture in a bowl with chicken and green chili peppers. Set aside. For sauce , in the same saucepan, melt 3 Tbls butter. Stir in flour, coriander, and salt ( can be left out here and added after sour cream and cheese.) Stir in chicken broth all at once. Cook and stir until thick and bubbly. Cook and stir 1 –2 minutes more. Remove from heat: stir in sour cream and ½ cup cheese. Stir ½ cup of the sauce into the chicken mixture. Dip each tortilla into the remaining sauce to soften; fill each with about ¼ to 1/3 cup of the mixture. Roll up. Arrange rolls seam side down in a baking dish. Pour remaining sauce over. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered, in a 350 oven for about 25 minutes or till heated through. Serves ~ 6 people. Recipe originally called for 12 6-in tortillas. Since this size is only available in corn, I use the next size up. This changes the amount from ¼c inside each roll to ~ 1/3c. Also it changes the amount of final rolls. The pan size will vary depending on whether you split out the recipe or cook altogether.
